Circulating hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) in patients with comorbidity of chronic heart failure, type 2 diabetes mellitus and impaired lipid metabolism
AIM: To evaluate the plasma level of circulating heptocyte growth factor (HGF) in patients with comorbidity of post-infarction chronic heart failure (CHF), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity. We also aimed to assess possible correlations between HGF levels and parameters of carbohydrate and...

| Sumario: | AIM: To evaluate the plasma level of circulating heptocyte growth factor (HGF) in patients with comorbidity of post-infarction chronic heart failure (CHF), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity. We also aimed to assess possible correlations between HGF levels and parameters of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, as well as myocardial functional characteristics and classic biochemical severity markers for CHF.17Сахар ный диабет КардиологияСахарный диабет. 2013;(2):17-25
MATERIALS AND METHODS: We enrolled 100 patients for participation in this study, including the following subgroups: 20 individuals with- out cardiovascular and glycemic disorders, 30 patients with CHF, 25 patients with CHF/T2DM comorbidity and 25 diabetic patients with no signs of heart failure. Quantitative plasma HGF analysis was performed with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
RESULTS: Plasma HGF was elevated both in patients with CHF and T2DM as measured against healthy control group. The elevation was most prominent in patients with CHF/T2DM comorbidity and was found to correlate with HbA1c level (r=0.52, p=0.03). Plasma HGF also correlated with BMI (r=0.42, p=0007) in a unified study group, though we observed no statistically significant difference between subgroups with a trend toward higher HGF in obese patients with CHF/T2DM comorbidity (626.1?254.1 pg/ml vs 742.0?210.7 pg/ml respectively; p >0.05). Interestingly, plasma HGF was also significantly higher in controls with BMI >30 km/m2 (324.1?107.7 pg/ml vs 436.9?112.3 pg/ml, p=0.03).Circulating HGF correlated with plasma levels of N-terminal fragment of B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and such structural and functional myocardial characteristics as left atrial size and maximum volume along with left ventricular ejection fraction (EF), end-diastolic volume (EDV) and end-diastolic dimension (EDD).
CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that HGF may potentially serve as a prediction marker for unfavorable myocardial remodeling and poor prognosis in CHF patients with T2DM and obesity, though this possibility should be further investigated in follow-up studies. |
